    Abstract: An EUV collector for collecting and transmitting radiation from an EUV radiation source includes at least one collector mirror for reflecting an emission of the EUV radiation source, which is rotationally symmetric with respect to a central axis. The EUV collector also includes a cooling device for cooling the at least one collector mirror. The cooling device has at least one cooling element, which has a course with respect to the collector mirror, in each case, such that the projection of the course into a plane perpendicular to the central axis has a main direction, which encloses an angle of at most 20° with respect to a predetermined preferred direction. The collector transmits improved quality radiation to illuminate an object field.

    Abstract: An illumination system for a microlithography projection exposure apparatus generally includes an optical element formed of a plurality of facet elements. The facet elements are arranged such that, for each facet element, a proportion of the side surfaces of the facet element is at a certain distance from the side surfaces of all the other facet elements. This gives rise to interspaces between the facet elements which are not used optically. The interspaces can be used for simpler mounting of the facet elements or for fitting mechanical components, such as actuators. A collector is used to efficiently illuminate such an optical element. The collector includes a plurality of segments that are in part non-continuous. Alternatively, however, continuous segments with a bend are also possible.

    Abstract: To provide an optical thin film structure capable of efficiently dissipating heat in an optical thin film which is generated upon irradiating a surface of an X-ray mirror made up of the optical thin film with an X-ray. The optical thin film having an isotope purity higher than a natural isotope abundance ratio is formed on a mirror to increase heat conductivity of the optical thin film itself and quickly dissipate heat accumulated in the thin film to the outside of an optical system. Consequently, the mirror having high reflectively can be obtained, in which a fine structure of the optical thin film is by no means broken.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method is described which may comprise a plasma produced extreme ultraviolet (“EUV”) light source multilayer collector which may comprise a plasma formation chamber; a shell within the plasma formation chamber in the form of a collector shape having a focus; the shell having a sufficient size and thermal mass to carry operating heat away from the multilayer reflector and to radiate the heat from the surface of the shell on a side of the shell opposite from the focus. The material of the shell may comprise a material selected from a group which may comprise silicon carbide, silicon, Zerodur or ULE glass, aluminum, beryllium, molybdenum, copper and nickel. The apparatus and method may comprise at least one radiative heater directed at the shell to maintain the steady state temperature of the shell within a selected range of operating temperatures.
